Dance Sweat Give

DSG, as we call it, is a quarterly fundraiser we've created at GROOV3™ to give back. We team up with different charities/organizations and donate 100% of the proceeds to the cause.

Not everyone in the world has the opportunity to participate in activities such as dance due to certain health limitations. For this reason, DANCE SWEAT GIVE was created.

The mission of DSG is not only to raise funds, but to also bring community awareness to each individual cause. How does DANCE SWEAT GIVE work? Our charity event consists of a one hour GROOV3™ class (a minimum donation is asked at the door) followed by activities such raffles, guest speakers, food, and more.

Your participation in this fundraising event helps contribute to a worthy cause and brighten the lives of others. If you know a charity that would like to take part or would like more information on DANCE SWEAT GIVE, contact G3.
